Built for impact. Driven by purpose. Powered by you!

Social media was supposed to connect us. Instead, it’s become a system where algorithms decide who gets heard. Creators watch their reach mysteriously drop. Small businesses can’t reach their own followers. Communities sharing their truth find their posts buried while misinformation spreads.

UpScrolled exists because we were tired of waiting for Big Tech to do the right thing. We needed a place where people could speak freely without playing algorithm games or being punished for telling the truth. UpScrolled is for everyone: from minorities to small businesses, creators, and everyday people.

We’re building the next big social platform—one designed to work for people who care. A space where your words are seen, your voice matters, and your presence isn’t treated like a threat. This didn’t start as a business idea—it started because we were fed up. Now we’re turning that frustration into something real.

Designed for clarity. Built for people.

UpScrolled gives you the tools to share freely, connect deeply, and stay in control. Every feature is designed to put your voice, privacy, and experience first.

“UpScrolled is the foundation for a digital ecosystem that puts power back into the hands of the people — not the corporations. It’s more than just an alternative to Meta, X, or TikTok — it’s a reimagining of what social media should be: a space where creators, communities, and businesses thrive independently, with real control, transparency, and accountability.”

Frequently Asked Questions

UpScrolled is committed to protecting freedom of expression — but with that freedom comes responsibility.

We only restrict content that violates our community guidelines or broadly accepted legal and ethical standards. This includes content involving illegal activity, hate speech, bullying, harassment, explicit nudity, unlicensed copyrighted material, or anything intended to cause harm.

We don’t censor opinions. But we do enforce a standard that keeps the platform safe, respectful, and responsible for all users. Please review our Rules and Policies for more details.

No. Never.

UpScrolled does not and will never shadowban content. The very idea of UpScrolled was born from the frustration with shadowbanning and quiet censorship on mainstream platforms.

We believe users deserve transparency — not silence. If content violates our community guidelines, you’ll know. If we have to shut down your account, we’ll be transparent about why. But your voice will never be suppressed in the shadows.

No — not without an absolutely valid reason.

UpScrolled will never share your data with third parties for marketing, profiling, or commercial gain. We only disclose user data as required by Australian law — such as in response to a valid court order or lawful request — and always in accordance with our privacy policy.

We will always comply with the law and only the law—do not share any information with any law enforcement agencies that we have not been compelled to provide.

UpScrolled puts you in control of how you see content.

  • Following Feed → 100% chronological. Posts appear exactly when they’re shared by the people you follow — no reshuffling, no manipulation.
  • Discover Feed → A simple, transparent ranking: posts are ordered by likes, comments, and reshares, with a light decay over time so fresh content rises, plus a touch of randomness to ensure every post still has a chance to be seen.


No silent shaping. No black-box AI. Just feeds that are open, fair, and designed to give you real choice.

We’re also developing optional discovery features — additional feeds that may use AI to optimize recommendations based on your prior behavior. This is still a work in progress, and will always be opt-in, fair, and transparent. Our commitment is to straightforward, understandable tech that puts users first.

Currently, UpScrolled’s core servers are hosted in Dublin, Ireland — chosen for its robust digital infrastructure, strong connectivity to both Europe and the U.S., and its reputation for strict data protection and privacy standards. It’s a location that reflects our commitment to performance, reliability, and user rights.

For speed and availability worldwide, we also make use of global CDNs and edge locations to ensure content loads quickly wherever our users are.

We do rely on some large-scale cloud providers at this stage — not because it’s our ideal, but because building fully independent infrastructure takes time. We’d rather be transparent about that than claim otherwise. Over time, we plan to reduce reliance on these providers and move toward greater independence.

We closely monitor the evolving regulatory environment, and will act quickly if changes require us to adjust where or how data is hosted.

الشريك المؤسِّس لشركة DNA

بالنسبة لغابرييلا بورد، يبدأ الاتصال الحقيقي بالحقيقة غير المقيّدة. بصفتها الشريكة المؤسسة لشركة DNA — وكالة المحتوى والمنصّة المخصّصة للعلامات التجارية — تساعد الشركات على توسيع منظوماتها الخاصة بالمحتوى. ومع ذلك، فإن رحلتها الريادية، التي شملت تأسيس كل شيء من وكالات محتوى إلى شركة مروحيات، أظهرت لها كيف تعطي المنصات التقليدية الأولوية للربح على حساب الناس. لهذا السبب فهي أيضًا شريك إستراتيجي لأبسكرولد، حيث تسهم في إنشاء فضاءات رقمية تتيح للمجتمعات المهمَّشة مشاركة حقيقتها بلا قيود أو خوف.

وبفضل عملها مع علامات تجارية عالمية، إلى جانب دفاعها عن الحقوق الفلسطينية في الأوساط المهنية، تدرك غابرييلا قوة السرد الأصيل. فهي تدعم روّاد الأعمال والمبدعين والمجتمعات التي ترفض أن يُخرسها التحيّز الخوارزمي أو الرقابة الخفية.

For Gabriella Bord, real connection starts with uncensored truth. As Co-Founder of DNA—the content agency with the content platform for brands—she helps corporations scale their content ecosystems. Yet her entrepreneurial journey, which has included building everything from content agencies to a helicopter company, has shown her how traditional platforms prioritise profit over people. That’s why she’s also a strategic partner to UpScrolled, creating digital spaces where marginalised communities can share their truth without filters or fear.

Having worked with global brands while advocating for Palestinian rights in professional spaces, Gabriella understands the power of authentic storytelling. She champions the entrepreneurs, creators, and communities who refuse to be silenced by algorithmic censorship.
